I haven't been banded yet, my estimated date is Nov. still in the waiting like everyone else. i've been trying to diet since it's advised for 6 months. which stinks, but waiting patiently is hard for me. Goodluck June 12th! it's your first step to the lapband! yay!

i need updates! how did everyone's appt. go?

Hi Jourdyn-

I am officially on the other side!

Glad that part is over...actually wasn't too bad.

Now the fun begins. I have the pain in my left shoulder, trying the walking and gas x strips, but nothing yet.

My stomach feels like I got into a fight and got a few sucker punches to my gut- and I lost. LOL

Got about 4 hour sleep, anesthesia wires me vs there are those who are knocked out!

Keep u posted

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
